[TECHNICAL FIELD]
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S)
[0002] The present invention relates to an organic light emitting device having improved
driving voltage, efficiency and lifetime.
[BACKGROUND ART]
[0003] In general, an organic light emitting phenomenon refers to a phenomenon where electric
energy is converted into light energy by using an organic material. The organic light
emitting device using the organic light emitting phenomenon has characteristics such
as a wide viewing angle, an excellent contrast, a fast response time, an excellent
luminance, driving voltage and response speed, and thus many studies have proceeded.
[0004] The organic light emitting device generally has a structure which comprises an anode,
a cathode, and an organic material layer interposed between the anode and the cathode.
The organic material layer frequently have a multilayered structure that comprises
different materials in order to enhance efficiency and stability of the organic light
emitting device, and for example, the organic material layer may be formed of a hole
injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport
layer, an electron injection layer and the like. In the structure of the organic light
emitting device, if a voltage is applied between two electrodes, the holes are injected
from an anode into the organic material layer and the electrons are injected from
the cathode into the organic material layer, and when the injected holes and the electrons
meet each other, an exciton is formed, and light is emitted when the exciton falls
to a ground state again.
[0005] There is a continuing demand for developing an organic light emitting device having
improved driving voltage, efficiency and lifetime.
